The books have been a staple in our household as well, and I echo other people is saying that this a loss of a true talent. One thing I thought I'd add to the conversation is that a series of very well done short films were made based on some of his books. If your little ones are begging for some screen time and you're wary of what youtube will unleash on them, I found these to be a really fun series that keep to his unique and beautiful aesthetic, and at least my kids loved to watch The Very Hungry Caterpillar on the screen and then read it together afterwards, and maybe your children will feel the same!
